Thanks for your patch! I've been busy with getting ufw 0.27 together and haven't looked at this yet. I hope to get to this soon.

Just wanted to let you know that I have not forgotten about this. The issue is that I need to define the command syntax carefully to ensure usability, future work and similarity with PF.

Unfortunately I've not had time to integrate this in ufw. I've reviewed the patch and it needs a lot of work to apply to the latest branch. Before anyone does that the cli syntax needs to be studied and developed and the patch updated accordingly. This is a feature I think would be a great addition to ufw, and hope to get to defining the syntax soon, perhaps at the next UDS.

What about this https://code.launchpad.net/~bertrand-goareguer/ufw/ufw-qos ? Is it a hope of QoS in ufw?
